too late now, but ive been using Ace Stream, you install a program like vlc and it plays through it, you can go back to earlier footage if you want, i tend to wind back a minute so it has more time to prebuffer the stream. I think it does take a lot of download though so youll need a decent plan

for next time guys

Hm google reckons that app is malware, interesting. think i'll give it a miss just in case :P

Refuelling and free tyre choice.. that is good. Let's bring back more common sense.....

Currently F1 has too many rules, and is so restrictive. Then they try and manufacture a show that is fake and boring. Prime example: DRS just makes passing a done deal. It's boring. Movable aero should get thrown out, or let everyone do it all of the time (ie to defend as well as pass). You can fiddle with the levels all you like but at the end of the day it's a band-aid that gives the guy behind an advantage that is decided by a committee. It's not 2 guys on a track with the same equipment dueling it out.

I recently watched the 2006 Hungarian race and it was epic. The cars with their beautiful V10s howled, the wings were low and wide, tyres gripped. Yeah, they had traction control (not a fan).. and some time around then grooved tyres came in which was a bit silly.. but the show wasn't as farcical as it is now. I don't even bother watching highlights. Who cares. Drivers aren't racing each other flat out, they are just playing a car management game. I feel really genuinely sorry for those who have taken their whole lives and worked their way through the ranks to be fed this horse shit formula.

Not sure if the reports are accurate but it looks like the limits on fuel flow rate and total fuel usage will remain so I don't see the point in fuel stops or plans to make more noise with higher revs??

yeah thats what i read too and it confused me too...

i guess fuel flow in the pits stops will determine if its worth an extra second or two will be gained by being lighter through out the race...

it also adds more risk in the pit stops though...

Also yeah the DRS things a bit stupid, Kers worked a bit better because both had the option to use/save it...

But yeah nothing beats the aero of the mid 2000's, such beautiful cars

Watching P2 and feeling jealous on two counts.

1) I'm not there and driving

2) I'm too old, "so Jolyon, when you won GP2 did you also get invited to the Prince Albert dinner party as per F1 guys?", "Nah, had to fly back to UK and sit my exam on the Monday"

Just opened Autosport site and what a confused joke F1 is. Bernie back in court being sued...team owners drivers or complaining about different things...surveys about what fans want....it all looks farking ridiculous!

[sigh]

It is farking ridiculous. Teams going bust and massive inequality in income distribution and their way to fix it is to go back to refueling. Genius.

The racing has been pretty good. I did the survey....told them what i think. 60% of cash needs to go equally to all teams and remaining 40% based on WCC position.

Loosen engine freeze and introduce front wing freeze where they only get 6 wing types and floors per season. Ridiculous they limit engines...making them more costly to engineer but they can spend hundreds of thousands of hours on a wing they may not do more than a practice session. Also need 3rd cars for P1 and P2 that young / test drivers run and are free for testing limiting wind tunnel time etc. by bringing 60 hours of in season, cheap testing to every season whilst having more cars on the track.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
